Below are the most common questions we get asked!

REGISTRATION AND REFUNDS

When does registration end?

We only have 700 spots available this year. Last year we had 500 in attendance with a waitlist of 400 people. The registration deadline will be March the 15th or when we sell out. We expect to sell out within the first 30 days of registration being open.

What is your refund policy?

Unfortunately, we do not offer refunds for our event. This is because we have to order a large number of custom products for the event once someone registers, and these costs are incurred as soon as registration is confirmed. We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause, but we hope you understand the logistical challenges involved in organizing a large event. If you have any further questions or concerns, please don't hesitate to reach out to us. Thank you for your understanding.

What age do I put if my player has a birthday before the event?

This years event will 100% follow the USSSA Age Calculator. Please register you player based on their 2024 Age and we will place them according to the age calculator. If you would like to see what age your player will be in, please use this link: https://www.usssa.com/BASEBALL/AGECALCULATOR

I haven't received an email from you, what should I do?

We apologize for any inconvenience you may have experienced due to not receiving an email from us. It's possible that the email address you entered during registration may have been entered incorrectly, which could have caused the issue. We recommend that you first check your spam or junk mail folder to ensure the email didn't end up there. All emails are sent from: FloridaDiamondSports@gmail.com  If you still cannot locate the email, please send us an email at steve.hassett@usssa.org with your player's first and last name, along with your updated email address. We'll do our best to ensure that you receive all future correspondence from us regarding the event. To help ease your mind, we post a link to all emails under the "Event Communication" tab on the site. We also send the link in a text message! We hope this helps!

EVENT ITINERARY

When is checkin?

Check-in for the event is scheduled for July 16th at Red Club House. This is when you'll be able to pick up your welcome items containing all of the essentials for the event, including any gear or materials you may need. Additionally, that afternoon, we will be hosting an optional skills competition for participants to showcase their talents and compete with other players. Last year we had an issue with the complex charging people gate on check in but this year that will NOT happen! We hope you're as excited as we are for the event, and we look forward to seeing you on July 16th for check-in.

What time will we be finished each day?

Our goal is to ensure that each day of the event ends in a timely manner, so that you have ample time to explore and enjoy the Space Coast of Florida. While we cannot guarantee an exact time due to potential weather issues, we will do our best to keep the schedule on track and ensure that participants are able to finish up in a reasonable amount of time each day. In addition, we have some exciting evening activities planned for participants to enjoy, including opening ceremonies on July 16th and a movie night in the park on July 17th. We encourage you to attend these events and make the most of your time in Florida. Thank you for your question, and we look forward to seeing you at the event.

When will you post the full event itinerary?

We understand that participants are eager to see the event itinerary, and we're working hard to finalize all of the details as soon as possible. Our plan is to send out the event itinerary in our June 4th email, which will also be posted on our website shortly thereafter. This will give you ample time to review the itinerary and plan accordingly. Thank you for your patience, and we look forward to sharing more information about the event with you soon.

WHAT SHOULD WE BRING?

What do we need to bring in order to participate?

We're excited to have you participate in our event! As part of your registration, we'll be providing you with 2 uniform tops and 2 custom hats. However, there are a few things you'll need to bring in order to be fully prepared. Specifically, we ask that you bring white pants, navy or black socks, and a belt, in addition to all of your baseball equipment. This will ensure that you have everything you need to participate fully and enjoy the event. Thank you for your question, and we can't wait to see you on the field!

Can I wear Metal Cleats at the event?

No, you are not allowed to wear metal cleats at space coast! It is fully turf and would destroy the turf.
